    I dunno at this point. What concerns me though is that most of my Laelias come from this vendor, and I just spent 350 bucks on my dream orchid. So, I hope they didn't mislabel that one.
    Oh no! I sure hope you got what you paid for on that one! Good luck.

    cheers,

    I know the vendor you are talking about.
    Maria, while this is a very pretty bloom it is not what you paid for. I know what they charge even for their "run of the mill" anceps. They ain't cheap. I would contact her and show her the photo. Someone got sloppy in labeling these.
    Still and all...great growing and lovely bloom.
